Ok. I've looked thru all the faq's I can find. I've wandered thru help files
 at ftp sites, and posts everywhere I can see them. Time to step up and ask.

Is there a site or sites ANYWHERE that archive cbip posting? Not the completed
 and collected .ZOO files, but the actual issues themselves?

I see SOOO many people asking "please send me parts 3, 12, and 13 of 36 of xxx"
 and really wonder if there's a site that ftp (or BITftp) can get them from.

Of course, I ask for selfish reasons -- there's a few parts sitting in my
 archive directory looking for their brothers and sisters, and I really don't 
 want to pull down (to use an actual case) dj1bin.zoo from somewhere when I'm
 only missing 4 parts out of 32.

I _was_ going to send Bill email, but after wandering thru SOOO many of the 
 same type of requests, I thought it would be of interest, and appropriate.

Replies in Email if you please, so I can easily summarize them for the net
(as far as I can tell, I _always_ get my email :-) )
